FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND ACCOUNTANTS'
REVIEW REPORT
BERLI JUCKER PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
SECOND QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 1998
Accountants' Review Report
To the Shareholders of Berli Jucker Public Company Limited:
We have made a review of the consolidated balance sheets of Berli Jucker Public
Company Limited and subsidiaries as at June 30, 1999 and 1998, and the related consolidated
statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity, retained earnings and cash flows for the three-
month and six-month periods then ended. We have also made a review of the Company only financial
statements of Berli Jucker Public Company Limited for the same periods. Our reviews were made in
accordance with standards established by The Institute of Certified Accountants and Auditors of
Thailand.
A review of interim financial information consists principally of obtaining an
understanding of the system for the preparation of interim financial information, applying analytical
review procedures to financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an examination in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the
financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be
made to the accompanying financial statements for them to be in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles in Thailand.
We draw attention to Note 1 to the financial statements. The operations of Berli Jucker
Public Company Limited and subsidiaries since 1997 have been affected and may continue to be
influenced for the foreseeable future by the economic conditions in Thailand and the Asia Pacific
Region in general. The ultimate effect that these uncertainties will have on the financial statements
cannot presently be determined.
